More Funds for a Stronger Bitcoin Strategy?
To support its Bitcoin acquisitions, Metaplanet has been actively raising capital. Analyst Dylan Le Clair revealed that the company secured $20 million in equity capital within just two days of launching its “21 Million Plan.”
In addition, Metaplanet announced a 10-to-1 stock split, scheduled for April 1, to make its shares more affordable for investors. This follows a reverse 1-for-10 stock split just eight months ago, after which Metaplanetโs stock surged 1,370%.
